My preference for the next boat would either be a Skater32 or a Superboat42.

But I don't think JC would stretch the 34 anytime soon



I wonder what an SB42 would cost...hull only

Noli- how about the first 'SB CAT Open Deck'

Just talked to Rick, seats went out for upholstery today

I am swinging by the shop tomorrow to sit in the seat/console set up to see how high a base needs to be built to raise the console.

Also swinging by accurate to go over jackplates and steering. So gonna be a busy Saturday....maybe go to bed, bath and beyond, but dont know if we will have time

S,

Please bring your camera when you visit the shop for the seat height measurements....pics pics pics

What are you looking for, shower curtains for the new boat ???

Went by Accurate today to make some decesions on jackplates and steering, then over to Superboat, here are some pices from today of the seating set up

More some shag carpeting and a nice chandelier to hang inside the centerconsole

Boat coming along nicely. Whats the deal does every part have to be custom made. It has to be costing you a fortune. I like the twin buckets. Can your feet touch the ground when sitting? That cushion looks pretty tall in tha pricture. Rick and Bob do nice work, your in good hands.

Z-thanks, I really like how its coming along. The only real custom part has been the seat/console. The console is a millenium console that needs a base built to raise it (which has been started), and it is coming up about 5 inches. But a mounting for a throttle also needs to be built, and that should be started this week as well.

For the seating, it is just a modified/cut down version of the seating backrest/tub they already had with the buckets bolted to it.

The actual cushion for me is going to be cut down an inch, but even with the current cushion, my feet just touch the floor, so after dropping an inch out of the cushion, should be fine.

Definitly going to cost me some more then if we just went with the stock parts they already had made, but I wanted somethng a little different, and the true 'stand up' console with a leaning post or even high bucket seat was never really going to be an option after JC, Rick and myself spent some time thinking about it, the center of gravity was to high when you were standing. Its fine with the single engine application in the 60 mph range(I have been on on it, and its very comfortable), but with duals and the speeds we predict, I wanted to spend more time driving the boat then I did hanging on for dear life

I guess the splash well was custom as well, but JC had told me when I was first looking at them that he was going to build a splash well for a twin application.

And Rick and Bob are great. Watching Rick do his thing is an education, and I think if you told Bob to build a mold for the Eiffel Tower, he could do it in a week, guy is great at what he does

Other then the transom cut out ... what are the differences between this boat ... and the stock one ?

Can the stock transom be modified to a twin engine model ?
